The set-up: I believe the visitors are well worth the price of admission in this one. Obviously Luis Castillo (1-4, 6.42 ERA) has not gotten out to the start to the season that he or the Reds had hoped for, but he has the tools in place to return to form (last year he had a 3.99 ERA on the road.)

The pick: Chi Chi Gonzalez (1-1, 5.97) has also struggled mightily this seaosn for the Rockies, most recently getting rocked for seven runs off eight hits with just one K over three innings in a loss to the Cardinals. These teams are moving in opposite directions right now and I expect those trends to continue. Lay the price.

This is an 8* DESTRUCTION on the Reds.
